What are some good publishing companies?

I've wrote some stories (well one story and I'm working on a series now) and i cant find a good publishing company. I know that the chances of getting m book published without an agent are one in a million, but I'm willing to take those chances. I just need some help finding a good one. I'm looking for something in Canada. And i don't want to pay a fee for them to read my book. Any ideas?What are some good publishing companies?
If you pay a fee for anyone to read your book -- if you pay a fee to anyone at all, for any reason -- you are being scammed. (That's called "Yog's Law.")



Are you talking about short stories or novels?



Are you talking about fiction or non-fiction?



Is there a special reason you're looking for a Canadian publisher?



Is there a special reason you're trying to avoid agents?



If it's because you're afraid your book isn't good enough ... make your book good enough.



As to finding good publishers, go into a bookstore. Find books already on the shelves that are similar to yours. Get those publishers' guidelines, and follow them to the letter.



If they say that they don't read unagented manuscripts, get an agent. Find the agents who represented those books you found in the bookstore, get their guidelines, and follow those guidelines to the letter.



Meanwhile, keep writing and improving your craft.What are some good publishing companies?
